Laurene Kelly

The doubts of yesterday left as soon as I caught my first wave. I felt so strong and powerful and forgot the crap in my life as I skimmed down the face of a wave. 

Julie is getting her life back together after the tragedy that destroyed her family. She has a passion for surfing, and is making new friends and finally starting to feel like she belongs. But when her brother Toby wants to leave Sydney and return to the bush to live, and Aunt Jean becomes unwell, Julie fears she is losing what’s left of her family, and wonders if she is being punished for being happy. While Julie continues to be besieged with dramas, she also finds an inner strength, and vows to stop crying and make this her laughing year. 

The letter sat there. Why did it look so innocent? I guess because it was only words on paper. But what would those words say?

2005 | ISBN 9781876756529 | Paperback | 200 x 130 mm | 278 pp

Reviews

‘This is a most satisfying conclusion to the tragic story of Julie and Toby. With a deft hand Kelly is able to immerse the reader in Julie’s world and experience her emotional recovery first hand. Kelly is to be commended for making this heartrending story so realistic and not making Julie or any of the other characters saint like, instead portraying them in gritty realism so we the reader see their flaws and frustrations.  A recommended read.’ 

—Stephen James-Smoult, YARA website
